which M.C. should I get to increase braking ability?

I have a 92 dx hatch with upgraded pads, rotors, lines, and fluid.

It seems my stock MC is crapping out on me, it leaks by the mounting base to the brake booster, not a lot but noticable (it goes from full to low in 1 month of hard braking)

so what is an inexpensive way to uprgrade this, and will this just be a reliability mod or will I gain braking performance?

I have a 88 civic with the DA booster/mc. Since you have a 92 look for a gsr mc/bb.
If you want reliability get the civic mc. For performance get the integra mc/bb.

you can get a civic ex/si MC...
it should bolt right onto your booster...

or you can get an integra RS?
which will also bolt onto the booster... (i think)

or you can get an integra gsr MC
WITH booster and swap the whole thing out
(which is a BITCH!!!)

for now, i'm running the civic ex/si MC
and the **** is firm!
(make sure you bench bleed the MC!!!)
